Post how you display your retro consoles/systems; picrel is mine. I'll be making a similar one for my Xbox, PS2, and portable consoles soon.

Best place to get your setup started is by looking through recycle centers, scrap yards, or hell even dumpster diving. I got all the consoles I need but going to mine I found a fully working apple ii, Wii, and PS2 slim. Also a DS that doesn't work at all but that's just now my personal project. All that shit together probably cost me less than 14 dollars

Partial record collection in pic rel, what I listen to most. Also have cassettes, cds, few 8track, a reel to reel, and music on computer.
Favorite records: Van Halen - 5150, OU812, Sammy Hagar - VOA, Dokken - Under Lock and Key, Night Ranger - Dawn Patrol, Cinderella - Long Cold Winter, Boston - Don't Look Back, Third Stage, Rush - Permanent Waves, ELO - Discovery.

The Tuner. Is it just an AM/FM Tuner with a dial you hook up to a receiver? I find myself listening to radio a lot even thought there's only 2 stations I really like, it's too easy. Are there not any good stations around you?

Nice pic. Yeah the tuner is just radio tuner with preset options. But I just decided I should get it. I was thinking that I only evfer listen to public radio at work, but thats because it doesn't quite make sense at home. If I had a tuner hooked up to the receiver with presets it'd be easy enough to do.

Do you have a shortwave radio? They're super fun to put it in a hifi set up. Something about listening to a broadcast from Japan is so magical on the radio. Of course we can just go watch Japansse broadcasting online but doing it through much more primitive technology is incredible.

Unfortunately, I do not. I've been looking around for a decent (or what seems like decent) radio that does all the different bands but there generally more than I want to pay. I'm pretty cheap and most everything I get has to be a deal. I guess I should look into what I really want out of it. That sounds pretty cool getting radio from that far.

This is my temporary setup. Hoping to have more space soon though, and I'll probably pick up a Kallax or something from Ikea because I have around 600 records that need some shelf space. Gonna look into modifying that to fit those plus CRT plus consoles.
